Not a big deal, thus downgrading. /etc/ is only writeable by root, and visudo
properly checks for already existing files:

$ sudo visudo
Password:
visudo: sudoers file busy, try again later

I can't see a security issue here, this is just a (rather cosmetical) bug;
temporary files do not belong into /etc.
